Lester Speight played Cole in Gears of War, its two sequels, and its prequel Judgment. In the tweet you see above, a fan asked Speight if he had received a call about the new Gears, to which he simply replied, "Yup!"

We know developer Black Tusk Studios is working on a new Gears title after Microsoft acquired the rights from Epic Games, and studio manager Rod Fergusson recently jokingly teased the image you see below, but other than that, what's in store for the next Gears game is still pretty much a mystery. We included the game on our list of titles we expected to see at E3 this year, and were surprised to see absent.

Our TakeSpeight's tweet is light on details, not even offering much worth getting excited about. With so little known about the next Gears of War, however, even this tiny little morsel is interesting. If Speight is returning as Cole, one assumption we can make is the the next Gears probably won't be a reboot with all new characters and actors. Hopefully we'll learn more soon.
